Bargain book shopping for the financially challenged: cookbooks, old glossies, cartoon books, tattered James Hadley Chase or Mills&Boon novels, and college, computer and management books. While the hawkers have cheaper and mostly old, second-hand wares, there are lines and lines of bookshops at Koti too, that will sell newer and more expensive editions.
Recommended time for browsing/shopping: Morning around 10...the shops have just opened by then...so the sellers are more willing to offer a good bargain (to keep the 'boni' or the first sale of the morning, considered to auspicious)...
